My two kids are in their mid 20s and somewhere along the line (in recent years), they realized that mom and dad DO know some stuff. I don't give un-solicited advice, but I am always available to give advice or suggestions when asked. I have to bite my tongue sometimes, but I have to let them make their own decisions.
@Retired_Engineer: I think I will always give unsolicited advice. The boys will be 18 next month *gasp* so I give them words of wisdom, hope they are listening, and allow them to make their choices. Idk if boys ever ask their mom for advice. I ask my mom everyday, lol!
